I must say I am impressed with the RIM potentially abandoning the Blackberry OS for something different, although why not just Android or WP7 is another question. I do not think anyone is under an illusion that attempting to simply copy the iOs with BBOS6 was not really an overwheliming sucess (http://lat.ms/9TQwrZ http://lat.ms/9TQwrZ), as an OS it is actually probably not that bad but sticking it on an underpowered device, maybe to save battery and production costs was far from an insipired decision. I was worried about this though: "device will only be able to connect to mobile networks through a Blackberry". If that means it just works like a Blackberry currently and connects via the organizations BES then that would be fine. If it is somehow needs to pair with a BB to connect to the internet and other networks then that will be very disappointing and contribute to the failure of the device. I have actually been very bearish on RIM recently with its loss of mindshare and a lack of a really competitive product against the iOS and Android devices (smartphone and tablet). But combined with the sharp increase in revenue (http://yhoo.it/9Od7im http://yhoo.it/9Od7im) as well as Apple and Google not really addressing the enterprise challenges (in security, deployment, centralised management: http://bit.ly/amZzud http://bit.ly/amZzud ) This gives me renewed hope for RIM, I am actually going to reverse my stock holding and go long.
